Linda Kozlowski’s rise to fame in “Crocodile Dundee” alongside Paul Hogan marked a significant milestone in her career. However, after the success of the “Dundee” series and a few other roles, she gradually stepped away from the limelight.
Born on January 7, 1958, in Fairfield, Connecticut, Linda pursued her passion for acting at the Juilliard School. She began her career in off-Broadway productions and eventually transitioned to minor roles on Broadway and television. Her journey to stardom wasn’t without challenges, but with the help of mentor Dustin Hoffman, she landed the role of Sue Charlton in “Crocodile Dundee.”
The film’s monumental success catapulted Linda to international recognition, but she felt underappreciated in Hollywood. She continued acting in the “Dundee” sequels but turned down roles that typecast her. After the third film, she decided to step away from acting altogether.
Linda found love with Paul Hogan during the “Crocodile Dundee” series, and they married in 1990. They had a son, Chance, in 1998, but their marriage ended in 2014. Following her divorce, Linda chose to focus on her own path. She met Moulay Hafid Baba, a native tour guide, in Morocco, and they established the luxury travel agency Dream My Destiny.
Today, at 63, Linda Kozlowski has embraced her new life in Marrakech, creating unique travel experiences for clients. She finds real life more rewarding than fiction, using her intuition to craft memorable experiences. Though she may have left Hollywood behind, her legacy as Sue Charlton lives on, a testament to her adventurous spirit.
